A solid law tale

Being new to Grisham, I'm again impressed by his character development. You do get the expected legal procedural and also get interesting characters. Even though they're 'ambulance chasers' and a bit sleazy, I wanted to hear about them.

The pace is a bit clunky in the middle but still an entertaining book.
